Problems encountered while trying to print color photos over the
network:
Photos taken at various times using different cameras and settings.
Printing to a networked HP Laserjet 4500n (Color Laserjet) using
microsoft XP "photo printing wizard".
About an inch of each photo prints, then nothing. If I print 4 photos
to a page, I get 4 one inch bars to a page. I have tried reinstalling
the driver, using a different computer (HP, Compaq, MPC), and printing
different photos (different resolutions).
I realize this is sort of a vague problem, but if you ask a question, I
can give you more info.

You may want to check out a news group devoted to the printer or the
program you are using to print the images.

What are the printing preferences? How much memory is in the printer?
Can you print a full page photo from another application?

What you are describing often happens with laser printers if the size of the
image file is too large to be held in printer memory.
Sometimes the problem can be solved just by lowering the dpi of the image to
be printed, but this requires a photo program able to do this resampling (PS
or PSE, PSP, Photopaint).

Check the disk space on the drive that holds your print spool file. If
you don't have enough free space you will get a cutoff print. For a
fullsize image you may need a 50-100 meg.
